Passive and Active Drag of Paralympic Swimmers
PASSIVE AND ACTIVE DRAG OF PARALYMPIC SWIMMERS By Yim – Taek OH A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirement of the Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute for Performance Research Department of Exercise and Sport Science Manchester Metropolitan University SEPTEMBER 2015 i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Above all, I give thanks to my Lord Jesus Christ with my whole heart, who planned, carried and finished my PhD. I dedicate this thesis to my precious Lord Jesus Christ. I would like to give thanks to God, as He allows me to see my world-best supervisor Dr Carl Payton. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to him for his invaluable help and inestimable encouragement throughout my PhD. Through his leadership this thesis could consolidate its position as a potential contributor to future IPC classification. I would also like to offer my thanks to Dr Conor Osborough who offered me worthy help, especially during the ‘Passive drag project’ at the London 2012 Paralympic games. I would like to give my thanks to Dr Casey Lee and Dr Danielle Formosa who, as the team members of the project, helped me in collecting the data. I must also thank Prof Brendan Burkett of the University of Sunshine Coast and all the members of the IPC Sports Science Committee. With the support of IPC Sports Science this thesis was able to conduct experiments during both the London 2012 Paralympic games and the Montreal 2013 IPC Swimming World Championships. Additional thanks goes to Mr Des Richards and Mr Grant Rockley who helped me in preparing the experimental devices and Mr Eric Denyer who kindly helped in the proofreading of the thesis. -
BUILDINGS and THEIR APPLICATIONS in GEOMETRY and TOPOLOGY to the Memory of Professor S.S. Chern Contents 1 Introduction and Hist
ASIAN J. MATH. c 2006 International Press Vol. 10, No. 1, pp. 011–080, March 2006 002 BUILDINGS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS IN GEOMETRY AND TOPOLOGY∗ LIZHEN JI† To the memory of Professor S.S. Chern Abstract. Buildings were first introduced by J. Tits in 1950s to give systematic geometric inter- pretations of exceptional Lie groups and have been generalized in various ways: Euclidean buildings (Bruhat-Tits buildings), topological buildings, R-buildings, in particular R-trees. They are useful for many different applications in various subjects: algebraic groups, finite groups, finite geometry, representation theory over local fields, algebraic geometry, Arakelov intersection for arithmetic va- rieties, algebraic K-theories, combinatorial group theory, global geometry and algebraic topology, in particular cohomology groups, of arithmetic groups and S-arithmetic groups, rigidity of cofinite subgroups of semisimple Lie groups and nonpositively curved manifolds, classification of isoparamet- ric submanifolds in Rn of high codimension, existence of hyperbolic structures on three dimensional manifolds in Thurston’s geometrization program. In this paper, we survey several applications of buildings in differential geometry and geometric topology. There are four underlying themes in these applications: 1. Buildings often describe the geometry at infinity of symmetric spaces and locally symmetric spaces and also appear as limiting objects under degeneration or scaling of metrics. 2. Euclidean buildings are analogues of symmetric spaces for semisimple groups defined over local fields and their discrete subgroups. 3. Buildings of higher rank are rigid and hence objects which contain or induce higher rank buildings tend to be rigid. 4. Additional structures on buildings, for example, topological buildings, are important in applications for infinite groups. -

Each type of i.estitution is described extensively in terms of the history of its delivery systems in the United States; its current organization and operating principles; and the way-in which it handles children in a fictional, typical community (Noah). Examined are such historical developments as the growth of 2ublic school involvement circa 1915-1946, the evolution of an independent juvenile court- apparatus, the emergence of mental asylums in the Jacksonian era, and the antecedents cf American colonial poor relief. -

Wilcox, Staff Engineer Systems Analysis Department Approved by: P a ager P. ipeJosepW, Manager Systems Analysis Department Approved by: _ ___ E. I. Ergin, Assistant Manager Navigation and Computer Systems Labor ato ry ii ABSTRACT Seven algorithms for failure detection, isolation, and correction of redundant inertial instruments in the strapdown dodecahedron configuration are competitively evaluated in a digital computer simulation that subjects them to identical environments. Their performance is compared in terms of orientation and inertial veloc- ity errors and in terms of missed and false alarms. The algorithms appear in the simulation program in modular form, so that they may be readily extracted for use elsewhere. -
